my sister is 16 and pregnant... once she has the baby can she be self emancipated? She wants to move out?
My parents grounded her until she is 18 for becoming pregnant. But i think that while she is a trying to be a parent she shouldn't be under her parents rules at the same time. She wants to move in with me, but my parents said no. If becoming emancipated requires my parents to sign anything they wont. They are very mean. So when she has the baby can she just leave? And if there is anyway to cut around it and move out please tell me. She is having it on feb. 1st.

emancipation varies from state to state. so i can't really give accurate information without knowing what state you're in. but i live in PA and here..there's no actual laws regarding emancipation. but the general rule is that your sister would have to prove that she can support herself and her child and continue going to school. I would say that you and your sister should contact a lawyer and find out with the law is in your state.
